By the way, that's why Ransom calls Una "the hottest First Officer in Starfleet history".

Gegen was? Grammatik?
Aber passt ja. Die AfD ist halt dagegen. Also, gegen alles.

Damit es eindeutiger wird, empfehle ich die Begriffe "Leistungsnehmer" und "Leistungsgeber" oder "Leistungserbringer".

Außerdem strahlen die Bildschirme, die mittlerweile an vielen Haltestellen angebracht sind, unglaublich viel Wärme ab. Ist vor allem im Sommer geil, wenn es eh schon zu warm ist, und dann wird man an der Haltestelle auch noch zusätzlich gegrillt.

The actual scene is very funny too.
SELA: Come in, gentlemen. Take a seat, please. (she continues working on a PADD) Excuse me, I'm just finishing up a speech. For you, Mister Spock. I rather enjoy writing. I don't get to do it often in this job.
DATA: Perhaps you would be happier in another job.
I always remembered TNG as being very stiff. But I've been rewatching several episodes with a friend lately, and I was surprised how many subtle jokes are in there.

One thing that the current era of Trek does right is giving each series a unique vibe. Remember when everyone complained that Voyager was just TNG 2.0? Definitely doesn't happen nowadays.
Of course that means that not every series appeals to every Trekkie. And that's okay. Just pick the ones you like.

"Compact" is a bit of a stretch. But the size of the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro (non-XL) is pretty nice. I currently have a 7 Pro and while the "screen real estate" is nice, it's really on the upper end of what I'm willing to use. (Both in terms of size and weight) I bought my mom a Pixel 8 recently and I really liked the form factor when I set up the phone. It's large enough to fit everything on the screen but small enough to use comfortably. Since I really want a telephoto lens the non-XL Pro version seems like it's made for me. 😄

wenn man nur tagesschau liest und Talkshows anschaut wird man nur wissen das "Schulden = schlecht" sind
Das liegt nicht nur an der Tagesschau. Das ist einfach in unserer deutschen DNA drin.
Neulich habe ich mal irgendwo gelesen, dass Deutsche möglicherweise auch deswegen so gegen Schulden sind, weil in der deutschen Sprache nicht zwischen finanzieller Schuld und moralischer Schuld unterschieden wird. Es ist das selbe Wort. Während beispielsweise im Englischen zwischen debt und guilt unterschieden wird.
Keine Ahnung, ob da was dran ist. Klingt aber auch nicht völlig abwegig.

I’m all for trying new things within the Star Trek universe!
I'm usually in the same boat. Because IDIC, you know? I like it when new shows expand the Trek universe and try something new. Just look at DS9. It got a lot of backlash in the 90s ("too dark", "not Gene's vision" etc.) and nowadays it's very popular and often ranked somewhere around TNG.
But this Section 31 movie.... I don't know. Nothing about seems appealing. The main role is basically Space Hitler. It was already nonsense how they tried to redeem that character on Discovery while she had no redeeming qualities. Compare that to other Trek "villains" like Gul Dukat who at least had some sort of moral compass, even if it was a bit skewed. But Georgiou? There's nothing. She's just one-dimensionally evil. Do we really need a movie with her in the main role? 😕

Just a throwback to one of the best teaser trailers ever. I get goosebumps every time I watch it. IMO the only Star Trek trailer that comes reasonably close is the [teaser trailer for the 2009 movie](https://youtu.be/TkZFWr0vR8Q).
racer.com
Excerpt: > Formula 1 says it is on track to hit its Net Zero targets by 2030 after the publication of its latest impact report that includes its carbon emissions. > The report currently includes figures from 2022 as F1 needs to await data from teams and other stakeholders from last year, but the first season that was not impacted by COVID-19 showed a 13 percent reduction in F1’s carbon footprint compared to the 2018 baseline. That’s despite the 2022 calendar featuring an extra race compared to prior to the pandemic. > The sport’s Net Zero target is a minimum of 50 percent emissions reduction versus 2018, leaving 37 percent still to be achieved by 2030.

>rather than something separated from the main line \[...\] this will be something published in conjunction with the main line, part of a larger initiative that aims to spotlight DC's entire lineup. But there will not be a reboot or even a relaunch of the main line, that will remain intact and continuity (along with many creative teams) will continue on. So this is essentially a long-term Elseworlds or Earth-Whatever within the same shared universe?
For those who don't know the Roddenberry Archive: they're rebuiliding 3D modles of Starfleet bridges and other sets where you can freeroam, and sometimes even interact with consoles etc. Last week I posted a [thread](https://lemmy.world/post/13935550) about the bridges of the TMP Klingon Battle Cruiser and the USS Discovery being added. The official blog update is [here](https://home.otoy.com/thearchiveapril24/). What the blog update doesn't mention is that multiple existing locations have been extended: - On the [Enterprise XCV-330](https://roddenberry.x.io/c2100-enterprise-xcv-330/) you can now climb the ladder to another level. (I'm fairly certain this wasn't possible a few weeks ago) - On all Enterprise NX-01 versions, the [2151 version](https://roddenberry.x.io/2151-enterprise-nx-01/), [2155 version](https://roddenberry.x.io/2155-enterprise-nx-01/) and the [Mirror Universe version](https://roddenberry.x.io/2155-iss-enterprise-nx-01-mirror-universe-mi/), you can now enter the Captain's ready room. - On [Deep Space Nine](https://roddenberry.x.io/2369-deep-space-nine-ds9/) you can now enter Odo's security office. - The [Disco version of the Enterprise NCC-1701](https://roddenberry.x.io/2257-uss-enterprise-ncc-1701/) now has a briefing room that wasn't shown on screen. (leave the Bridge to the starboard side)
That showed up on their [Star Trek page](https://www.paramountplus.com/collections/star-trek-day/). The selections for DS9 and VOY are pretty good. Even though I wouldn't call all of them "the best", they're all above average episodes. Meanwhile, the ENT selection of best episodes includes "highlights" like Acquisition, Carbon Creek, Marauders and Carpenter Street. Oh well.

> Finanzminister Lindner zeigt sich überzeugt: Die Wirtschaft benötigt neue Impulse, um wieder zu wachsen. Dazu gehört für ihn auch die Arbeitseinstellung der Deutschen. > Bundesfinanzminister Christian Lindner fordert von den Deutschen, ihre Einstellung zur Arbeit zu überdenken. In der ARD-Sendung »Caren Miosga«, sagte er, die Arbeitsmotivation der Bürger sei wichtig für die Entwicklung der Wirtschaft. Man müsse den Menschen »Lust machen auf die Überstunde« sagte Lindner. Unter Umständen sei auch eine »Mentalitätsreform« notwendig, da Arbeit nicht nur eine finanzielle Funktion erfülle. »Arbeit ist doch auch Sinnstiftung, das strukturiert den Alltag«. [...]

Unless I'm mistaken, the [Discovery bridge](https://roddenberry.x.io/2256-uss-discovery-ncc-1031/) has been added only recently as well. For those who don't know the Roddenberry Archive: have fun exploring. On some ships you can even leave the bridge and go to different areas of the ship (for example the shuttle bay or main engineering on the Enterprise D). Also, sometimes you can move or activate objects like consoles.

The official F1 channel is really putting out some great content recently. I hope they keep this up for the remaining season. ^(Then at least the videos before the race weekend will be exciting, if the races themselves fail to provide excitement)
"[Superman: The Triangle Era Omnibus Vol. 1](https://www.amazon.com/dp/1779528167/)" in September 2024 >collects *Superman* \#49-64; *Adventures of Superman* \#472-486; *Action Comics* \#659-673; *Superman: The Man of Steel* \#1-8. "[Deathstroke: The Terminator by Marv Wolfman Omnibus Vol. 1](https://www.amazon.com/dp/1779528515/)" in December 2024, which is pretty much what the trade paperbacks collected a few years ago, if I'm not mistaken >Collects *Deathstroke* (1991 series) #1-26; *Deathstroke Annual* \#1-2; *The New Titans* \#70; *Superman* \#68; and stories from *Showcase '93* \#6-11. Holy moly. What's going on in DC's Collected Editions department? They finally seem to be putting some serious resources into it. Just a few days ago the solicitations showed that hardcovers and softcovers of current runs will be released simultaneously, for example Ram V’s Detective Comics. And they also release the interjacent volumes too, so that the releases can sync up quickly and no softcovers are skipped. Which is a game changer for paperback readers. And now all those omnibus editions? Awesome! (there's also Aquaman by Peter David, Secret Six by Gail Simone, Flash by William Messner-Loebs and a bunch more in the next few months)
This was created by Reddit user /u/JohnKFisher, and I think it's a neat uncluttered guide for all Star Trek that's especially useful for newbies.
